The number one Test batter in the world, Marnus Labuschagne seems to be enjoying playing in front of a passionate crowd at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. Marnus has witnessed a meteoric rise in international cricket ever since his debut a few years ago and is widely regarded as one of the best Test batters in the circuit currently.
His unorthodox batting style and animated approach have also made him one of the most popular figures in the cricketing fraternity. While the Pakistani fans at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium voiced their support for both the teams, Marnus was one of the players who were extremely popular with the crowd.
There were several posters in support of Marnus throughout the five days of the historic Test match. Marnus himself enjoyed the support of the crowd and took to Twitter to thank the fans himself. Marnus said that he enjoyed the massive support of the crowd and requested them to share more posters on Twitter so he can thank them individually.
I've loved seeing all the signs in the crowd at Rawalpindi and want to acknowledge as many as possible to say thanks for the welcome 👋 so.. share your signs below 🇦🇺🇵🇰#AUSvPAK
